Traditional British Toad-In-The-Hole and Mini Toads Too!

Sep 13 2009: Excellent and very easy! Hadn't had Toad-in-the-Hole in ages. Had some British sausages I picked up from an import store. I thought 220C was closer to 425F, but wish I'd stuck with the 450F as stated, I had to keep it in the (gas) oven for longer. Served this with mash, green beans and an onion gravy. My little ones loved it too! Thanks for another great recipe French Tart. Update: just an FYI for others, a British 1/2 pint is 10 oz, not 8.

My husband cooked this for Tea tonight and it was briliant, I hadnt had it in ages and this really hit the spot. We used a medium sized roasting tin and were very happy with the resulting Toad int' hole. Hubby popped the batter in the fridge an hour before using, and added a pinch of baking soda to the mix to make sure it rose as we have had some flat ones previously.

Always wanted to make this, and your recipe looked great...guess what, it was!! My hubby was a little sceptical at first, but after he took the first bite...let's just say, it's for supper again tonite! LOL. Definitely a winner with mashed potatoes and onion gravy! Thanks for the awesome new family favorite.

This is a tasty dish, my old roommate used to make this recipe, and I always liked it. Now I make it often.

This is a very easy and quick dish to prepare. It was delicious and I would recommend following French Tart%u2019s recommendation of serving with mashed potatoes and onion gravy!

I haven't had Toad-In-The-Hole since I left my parents house 30 years ago. This was not only super tasty comfort food, it brought back many lovely memories. I served this with mashed potatoes, peas and leftover roast beef gravy to which I added caramelized onions. I made the full recipe for 2 of us and after dinner removed the sausages intending to toss the yorkshire pud leftovers. I got up to sneak a piece a few times - right up to the time there was no leftovers at all. :) Thank you for sharing this one!

This is such a wonderfully delicious meal. Comfort food at its best. I have heard of "Yorkshire Pudding" but always thought it was just that, pudding. So I learned something and found a great recipe. I used 1 egg, 10 oz. milk and about 3/4 cup flour. Served with Onion Gravy. Next time I'll include the mashed potatoes. Thanks!

I'm only giving this four stars because the pan recommended (roasting) was way too huge and after checking on it at 25 mins half was burnt due to it being so thin. Next time I will make it in a regular sized pan and hopefully it will turn out better. I served this with mashed potatoes and onion gravy as recommended and that really made it great!

I saved this a while back so I wouldn't forget to make it when I finally had some good sausages. It is really worth the wait! Made this with mashed potatoes, and from-scratch onion gravy posted by Miller Time (also wonderful). Surprisingly enough, my picky children are loving the Yorkshire pudding most of all, so I will definitely be making this one again. I knew French Tart wouldn't steer me wrong! I love your recipes! Thanks so much for sharing.

Easy, tasty, with clear instructions. This went over very well with everyone. I used semi-skimmed milk with no problem. I served this with some Onion Gravy, steamed peas, and mashed potatoes.

The last time I had yorkshire pudding was 35 to 40 years ago and it was with a rare roast beef cooked by my late DDad. This was so easy to put together and we thoroughly enjoyed the dish. I used 6 thick sausages weighing just over 1lb 20z and it was enough for the 4 of us and they took an extra 5 minutes to cook. Thank you French Tart for a recipe that the DH said he would like again especially if we could get sate sausages like we got at Tuross 21 years ago. Made for Edition 3 - Make My Recipe - a game of tag.

I made this tonight and we had some guests over. We all loved it! I took the advice of another poster who said to put the batter in the fridge for a while first. I'm not sure how much of a difference it made, it seemed to rise just as much as my Yorkshire Puddings usually do, but it tasted excellent.

This is the perfect Toad in the hole recipe - I used beef sausages. A trick a mother of a friend taught me is to make the batter early in the day and put it in the fridge until just before pouring it in the hot fat and over the sausages. Apparently it gives an extra boost to the rising power. I made a mistake - the batter was rising beautifujlly and I wanted a picture so I nipped the pan out of the oven, snapped and put it back in -Well it didn't help the rise but Oh my this was delicious. Served with mashed potatoes & gravy - I say again Oh my - It is sinfully good - Thankd FT for a super recipe

This was a huge hit!!! We had it with mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy (little kids aren't too fond of onions). The kids giggled that they were eating "toads" the whole time. We used bratwurst because it was on hand and then followed your directions to a T. Mine only took 20 minutes to fluff up and turn golden brown. Thanks for the wonderful recipe.

Really yummy, my whole family enjoyed this one. The other reviews were also very helpful, I checked mine after 20 mins and removed it just after that. The full cook time in my oven would have definitely been too long! PS French Tart means it when she says QUICKLY, I took my time over one which then came out like a pancake!
